So the Bruins acquired three guys yesterday for depth. Mike Mottau, Brian Rolston, and Greg Zanon. Two of those guys are from America. All three are former collegiate athletes. Greg Zanon went to University of Nebraska. Mottau is a local guy from Quincy who also played for Boston College. Sweet. None of them are scoring machines, but hopefully they give the team more defensive depth.
Joe Corvo might kill a man tonight. Tune in as the Bruins take on Ottawa again. Ottawa made one significant trade at the deadline, sending Brian Lee to the Lightning for Matt Gilroy.
After the jump, Krejci on the "issues in the room," who made moves, and Nashville is actually scary...
